Hey Al, that looks sweet! How is the display screen mounted in where the ashtray used to be? Have you set it up so that you can just pull it off? Only asking cause was thinking of putting my boost gauge in there, but worried about how to set this up, in case one day I need to change stereo systems or something, and need to get at them 2 screws in there...

Whistla:

I will change the screen to display the bar graphs and explain it is just a rev and oxygen display :rofl:

To make the factory solenoid work over 10psi, my mechanic had to play around with air flow restrictors in the vaccum line to the wastegate. He kept swapping restrictors till he was in the ball park, then simply tunned the wolf till the boost was steady at 13psi.

95GTST:

The two screws have not been refitted, so the surround simply clips off. The gap that you see in the photo is as bad as it gets (hardly noticable in the car).

Behind the black face is a piece of 3mm perspex, that has been cut and shaved to size. Then a rectangle hole was cut in the middle, to allow the display to squeeze through (tight fit) Once display was aligned in perspex a drop off glue was applied on the corners. Then the perpex was fixed to the trim by some more glue. Measurements were then taken and a neat cover was made, to complete the job.

    • Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber
    • I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option 
    • You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)
    • I got adjustable after market rear camber arm to replace the stock one's because got sick of having to buy new rear tyres every few months. Can anyone please let me know what the best adjustment length would be. I don't have the old ones anymore to get measurements. I'm guessing the stock measurement minus a few mm would do it. Please any help on replacing them would be fantastic I've watched the YouTube clips but no-one talks about how long to set the camber arm to.
    • Heh. I copied the link to the video direct, instead of the thread I mentioned. But the video is the main value content anyway. Otherwise, yes, in Europe, surely you'd be expected to buy local. Being whichever flavour of Michelin, Continental or Pirelli suits your usage model.
